Where can I get me some fencing pants with stripes?
I see these pictures of fencing pants that have like 3 black stripes on the sides... they look pretty dang nice, where can someone by them online? or just who makes them?|||It sounds like you are looking at the Adidas FIE Pants. You can get them via the Blue Gauntlet web site.|||intente el circo
Does invisible fencing work well for cats too?
I am moving to a new neighborhood with my 7 year old indoor/outdoor cat, i am worried that he will get out of the yard and be lost. Do you think the invisible fencing would work for a cat too? Has anyone got it for cats?|||I have a friend whose husband works for Invisible Fence. And YES you can use it for cats! Apparently they make a smaller, lightweight collar for small dogs/puppies and it works just fine for cats. I have never used one but I think it would be a great idea.
However, as someone already mentioned, it might keep your kitty in the yard, but won%26#039;t keep other animals out. It would be best to make your cat an indoor-only cat if at all possible. And definitely keep him in a carrier until you are done moving, because if he gets loose and runs off, he very well may get lost. At least keep him inside for a while after the move so he can get used to the new place. If you decide to let him outside, do so for only a short time, even on a leash if necessary so he can%26#039;t go far.|||You%26#039;re welcome! Moving is such a pain...hope it all goes well.

|||My sister%26#039; has an invisible fence for her dog. Her cat has a collar for the invisible fence and it works for her. I hope it works for you, too.|||If you cat is a smart one.. He or she will find a way home.. It it is a dumb ***.. It%26#039;s likely to be crushed under wheels of a car or truck.. Got to remind you.. All Cats are not the same... Only old cats know how to live in a city..|||no|||I%26#039;ve never heard it being used for cats. My personal opinion would be that it wouldn%26#039;t work for cats.
When you move to a new place with cats, you have to keep them contained inside their living area (ie; inside the house) for a minimum 7 days or they WILL take off and get lost. Cats have to become familiar with their new surroundings and know that this is their new home or they will travel.|||The fencing usually has a caution lable for cat%26#039;s, it should not be used for them!!!!|||Do not use invisible fencing for cats unless you want to harm them. your cat should be indoor/outdoor anyway because of what can happen to him. feral cats, evil people, feral dogs etc. He must stay inside at least 2 weeks to recognize your new home as home or will go back to the old home.
Come on people do some homework here!!!!|||Such containment systems are not safe for cats. Instead, you can do one of the following:
1. If your yard is fenced, you can make it cat-proof with a somple system of t-bars and garden netting. There are internet sites that show you how to do this and also several merchants who sell the system ready to be assembled. Some of these systems are truly inenious! Check them out. Just type %26quot;cat enclosures%26quot; or %26quot;cat fences%26quot; and you%26#039;ll see.
2. Buy or build an outdoor cat enclosure. This is what I chose for my own two out-doors loving felines. They are really indoor cats but they love to go outside once or twice a day. There are racoons, squirrels, other cats and dogs in my area and it simply is not safe to leave my cats outside unattended or unconfined. So I bought a gated chainlink doggie kennel 13ft long x 7ft wide x 7ft high and its accompanying %26quot;roof%26quot; and turned it into a kitty wonderland in the backyard. They love it.
If you%26#039;d rather build one, aain you can et ideas from internedt sites. Just type in %26quot;cat runs%26quot; or %26quot;cat enclosures.%26quot; All that%26#039;s needed are wood beams, chicken wire, staples, nails, muscle and time.|||probably not cause he will jump over it or climb around when they are on the other side it works the same way and he will not want to cross it then|||Hey, well the fence may work, but what about those that can come in the yard and possibly attack your cat? You wont know if there is an agressive male around or female
They have fences that are 6-8 feet high with netting, the tops are curved inward to prevent escape. Its safe four your pet . Or have a enclosure built and attach it to your window. So she can have limited roam while having access to the home.
With collars you may not know the affect on a cat. they may run beyond the fence and the device has a safety shut off after so many seconds.
So go for a enclosed area built or attacked to your window. Just need wood and stronge neting. A safe enviorment|||keep your cat inside at least 30 days so it knows exatley where it lives please do this i didnt and i lost my cat after i week

How high does goat fencing need to be to hold Pygmy goats and baby goats.?
i am going to be buying pygmy goats and baby goats this year and i need to get the fencing up. I wanted to know how high it should be. How many posts i need to hold the fence. Also can goats jump? if so how high. Give me any info you can i need all the help i can get.|||You might check with these folks, they appear to have a lot of info...
http://www.premier1supplies.com/goats/sp...
Hope this helps.
Good Luck!
I plan to start fencing my property next year (economy willing).|||Pygmies can be pretty talented escape artists, but I%26#039;ve had more problems with the little guys sneaking under, rather than over, fencing.
Make sure your fence posts are set at about 5-6%26#039; intervals, and stretch your fencing tight. I have 5%26#039; chain link around the paddock area, and use 4%26#039; welded wire and t-posts around the pasture. I%26#039;ve also reinforced the bottom by driving in rebar %26quot;L%26quot; spikes every few feet. 4 feet seems to hold everyone just fine, but if the fencing isn%26#039;t stretched tight, goats can learn to walk it down and head right over it.
Goats can jump, and they can get over fencing or stall doors that are under 36%26quot; if they try. Make sure any of their climbing equipment or toys are placed well away from the fence.
Kids are often small enough to slip through calf panels, so I recommend looking for fencing that has a small weave.
Hope this answers your fencing questions and good luck with your new herd!|||I use a five foot high metal woven fence with metal posts about every 3 feet or so. Pull the fence very tight when putting it up and tieing it to the posts, and be sure there are no toys, chairs, stools, whatever next to the inside of the fence. They are smart little goats and will jump on anything to get over the fence!|||I use 5 strands of hot polywire spaced 3-4 fingers width apart to contain my goats. I prefer to train them and use that instead of traditional fencing. It wouldn%26#039;t be the first time I%26#039;ve seen an animal attempt to jump/climb a traditional fence and get caught/hung up in the fence. I%26#039;ve never had a problem with kids escaping after they learn that the fence bites.|||i had some once you have to use welded wire fencing make the holes small enough they cant put there heads threw or you wil constantly be out there getting them unstuck there horns get stuck then they cant get there head back in also use a t-post every 10 - 15 feet build a shed so they can get in otta the rain they need something to climb on out in the middle its what comes natural to them preferablysome huge rocks it cant be near the fence or they will jump over if they dont have the rocks a old car with no weels on it will do rocks are important because with out them you will have to trim there hooves. i loved my goats they dont jump very high also they have twinns olmost every time fence should be 4 ft high when they are real small they sound like real baby when they cry|||Premier is a great place for fencing. I recommend them highly.
I don%26#039;t like woven wire fencing for goats because they will walk it down. It might take a few years but they will.
Our fencing is welded wire that we got at an auction with very small holes. Regular cattle panels will allow babies to escape.
You might get by with 4%26quot; fencing if you have true pygmies but I keep my kids behinde at least 5 feet tall fence.

How can I see/view the the Olympic Wrestling and Fencing?
Since channel 7 does not appear to support the Wrestling and Fencing events, how can I view them?|||There has been a tiny bit of fencing coverage, specifically the Women%26#039;s sabre events, and a bit of the men%26#039;s sabre events. The only possibility of what you could see on TV for the rest of the games would be the Men%26#039;s sabre team tonight, after that it%26#039;s pretty much it. I%26#039;m not sure about wrestling TV-wise.
However, nbcolympics.com does offer a great amount of coverage on every sport there. Here are the links to the fencing and wrestling pages:

The NBC website also has event facts, athlete bios, and other useful and interesting information, so I%26#039;d highly recommend checking it out.

Should I add fencing and target practice to my list?
At 19, I%26#039;ve mastered Kung-Fu, Karate, Judo, Jujitsu, Tae-Kwon Do, and Aikido. Should I add fencing, target practice (shooting), or paint-ball to my list? Any of the three?|||With such an extensive background in martial arts I think it would be hard to add more disciplines to your repatoire. It also depends if you%26#039;re just trying to learn everything you can or if you%26#039;re learning all about every form of self defense. Fencing is fun, it%26#039;s hard work and it takes a lot of discipline and some guts just like martial arts. Target shooting is another sport all together but not bad if you plan on having a gun at home for self defense. Paint-ball I find to be fun but there%26#039;s also airsoft if you go that route.
As for adding any of them it%26#039;s up to you really, with fencing I%26#039;d recommend Epee style as it%26#039;s the least flashy and most down to earth form. With target shooting just visit a gunrange in your hometown for more details on the safety, training and equipment you%26#039;ll need. With paint-ball...I%26#039;m not an expert but there%26#039;s plenty of centers around the States.

A rancher has 800 feet of fencing to put around a rectangular field ?
A rancher has 800 feet of fencing to put around a rectangular field and then subdivide the field into 3 identical smaller rectangular plots by placing two fences parallel to one of the field%26#039;s shorter sides. Find the dimensions that maximize the enclosed area.
|||Length of shorter side: x
Length of longer side: y
We know that:
2y+4x=800
A=y*x=(400-2x)*x=400x-2x^2
To find the maximum:
A%26#039;=400-4x=0
x=100
y=400-2x=200|||2x+4(x/2)=800
so the two long sides would equal 100 and the two shorter sides would equal 100. Then the two dividing fences in between to give three smaler rectangular plots would also equal 100. So you have four 100 sides and two 200 sides which equals 800

I might take up a fencing class an i would like to know Is fencing painful?
So are the blades in fencing sharp and pointy? do they hurt to get stabbed by? do they cut?|||Fencing is a very safe sport. None of the weapons are sharp, all of them are blunt. And, when you fence, you MUST wear the proper attire or your instructor will not let you near a sword.
There is a jacket, with is either made out of a very thick nylon or a kevlar material. That%26#039;s the stuff they make bullet-proof vests out of. Then, there is the plastron, which is a half jacket that goes under the first jacket to protect your blade arm further. You must wear knickers (pants that go to the knee) or full pants. There is a glove that goes over your sleeve so that the blade of your opponent%26#039;s weapon cannot reach your arm and there is the mask (the most important piece).
-Men are advised to wear a cup (yes, that%26#039;s target area in foil), and women are required to wear chest protectors-
The worst injury that I have ever received during my fencing experience is a metal splinter because I grabbed my weapon out of its bag too quickly.
The worst injury I have ever witnessed is a twisted ankle...
The worst you will feel is MAYBE a bit of a sting, and that is only if the people hit hard...and if you are in a beginning class, they will be more worried about getting hit than hitting you.
I wish you the best of luck. Fencing is a blast! I hope you take the class. Maybe we%26#039;ll end up competing in a tournament together one day...|||You should totally take up fencing. No the blades are not pointy. There is a rubber tip on the end of a foil, which is the weapon you will probably start out on, and you wear a mask that protects your face and a glove for your hand and a padded jacket so it doesn%26#039;t hurt at all. Legs are off target (touches there don%26#039;t count) so they seldom if ever get hit.|||If you%26#039;re wearing the right equipment, nothing should happen. Also, fencing swords aren%26#039;t particualrly desined to cut so you sould be fine.
There is a jacket, with is either made out of a very thick nylon or a kevlar material. That%26#039;s the stuff they make bullet-proof vests out of. Then, there is the plastron, which is a half jacket that goes under the first jacket to protect your blade arm further. You must wear knickers (pants that go to the knee) or full pants. There is a glove that goes over your sleeve so that the blade of your opponent%26#039;s weapon cannot reach your arm and there is the mask (the most important piece).
-Men are advised to wear a cup (yes, that%26#039;s target area in foil), and women are required to wear chest protectors-
The worst injury that I have ever received during my fencing experience is a metal splinter because I grabbed my weapon out of its bag too quickly.
The worst injury I have ever witnessed is a twisted ankle...
The worst you will feel is MAYBE a bit of a sting, and that is only if the people hit hard...and if you are in a beginning class, they will be more worried about getting hit than hitting you.
I wish you the best of luck. Fencing is a blast! I hope you take the class. Maybe we%26#039;ll end up competing in a tournament together one day...|||You should totally take up fencing. No the blades are not pointy. There is a rubber tip on the end of a foil, which is the weapon you will probably start out on, and you wear a mask that protects your face and a glove for your hand and a padded jacket so it doesn%26#039;t hurt at all.

Anyone tell me the law regarding partition fencing?
Is there any way fencing should be facing, meaning, do the slats have to be facing towards neighbouring garden? In other words can one put the %26quot;nice side%26quot; facing towards the owner of the fence?, some had said that the law says that the posts had to not face towards the person errecting the fence. Is this a wind up or genuine info, know this is where I!ll get the right answer. This is to save having to reverse sides if errected incorrectly. Thanx for help, please.|||If you have an HOA odds are the %26quot;nice%26quot; side of the fence has to face out and the posts be inside the fence along with the %26quot;ugly%26quot; side. Why would you want to face the %26quot;ugly%26quot; side out? Erect the fence with the attractive side out. If you dont odds are people will assume you had no idea what you were doing when you put it up. We all dont like our neighbors but if you put the ugly side out it makes your own property unattractive|||Almost everywhere, the law is nice side to the neighbor
How to sign up for Malaysia Open Fencing 2008?
I%26#039;m interested to signup for Malaysia Open Fencing Tournament 2008. Can anyone please give me any details? Both online and offline. Thanks!|||An %26quot;open%26quot; tournament usually suggests that all you need to do is show up. But, you might want to contact the promoter for details.|||You probably need to join a Malaysian Fencing federation. As a member, you would be allowed to enter fencing tournaments they sponsor. (At least that%26#039;s the way I remember it being here in the US.)

Are there any wooden fencing companies in Roscommon or Mayo?
Hi Everyone,
I%26#039;m looking for a professional company that supply and fit, gates and fencing. I%26#039;d like a company that phone back when they promise to and turn up when they say they will.
Can you help by directing me in their direction please.
Thanks|||Well, first you need to tell us your country, don%26#039;t you? LOL
In IRELAND, where there is both a Mayo and Roscommon COUNTIES, there happen to be plenty of fencing folks in the directory page below.
Wow, you don%26#039;t like to make it easy to answer, do you?

Who has the most reasonable price for privacy wood fencing?
Should you go with Lowe%26#039;s/Home Depot or a regular fencing company.|||HD %26amp; Lowe%26#039;s will beat any local competitor by 10%.
If the difference is believable you don%26#039;t even need proof or an ad. They will usually take your word for it at Home Depot.

How can i practice foil fencing when im only by myself?
i%26#039;m seeking a way to practice fencing when i have no one to fence with
any suggestion?|||I%26#039;m a sabre, and when I%26#039;m by myself I put my mask on a chair and practice my cuts...
So,
try this:
hang your jacket on a door or something and practice your aim, thrust, etc.
Also, you could just aim for a certain piece of wall.
I do that as well.
Don%26#039;t forget your footwork!
Good luck!

Where is the cheapest place to buy 6 ft fencing panels?
I have a long stretch of fence to replace and I am amazed how expensive fence panels seem to be. It needs to be a solid fence, for privacy and also dog proof. Has anyone done the research and found a particularly cheap source of fencing. I would need about 20-30 panels|||I recently got 6 of those panels from B+Q for 拢100 including delivery. Unlikely to get very much cheaper but you could shop around to see if you got a discount for 30|||You are unlikely to get a quality panel for under 拢10 even with discount. At the beginning of last Autumn it was announced there was a %26quot;shortage%26quot; of the right kind of wood for fence panels.|||Wicks and B%26amp;Q are by far the cheapest.|||b%26amp;q

Will a goat stay in heavy gauge wire fencing?
My horse is in a mixture of electric and heavy gauge wire fencing, will a lamanca goat stay in that? I figured I%26#039;d have to add an extra row or two as thier is 4 up now.|||If you%26#039;re horse stays in it, you should be fine but some types of goats can climb wire fences very easily.|||nope goats will chew rite through it try wood|||4 should be enough ...how far from the ground is it? you have to put it fairly low to the ground as goats can go right underneath
A rectangular garden is to be enclosed on three sides by fencing; the fourth side is the side of a barn. you h
a rectangular garden is to be enclosed on three sides by fencing; the fourth side is the side of a barn. you have $750 to spend and the appropriate fencing costs $2.75 per linear foot. what are the dimensions of the largest garden that you can enlose and how much will it cost?|||I can tell this is math homework. No gardener would put their stuff up against a barn... nothing would grow in shade like that.
$750 / 3 = $250 each of the 3 sides
$250 = 90.91
Therefore you should make each of the three sides 90 feet, for a cost of $742.50.
Unless you want to go down to the mm.
But now it%26#039;s not rectangular, it%26#039;s a square.
You also never said how wide the barn was.... there is a possibility that you could make the fence too wide and there would be a gap of which it is impossible to know about with this question.|||Math homework, definitely math homework.
The largest area (for a given length of fence, i.e. a max cost of fence) will be surrounded by a fence that%26#039;s twice as long (along the barn side), as it is deep.
Depending upon what grade you are in will determine how you decide this. If you have differential calculus, you should know min-max applications. Otherwise, you%26#039;ll have to make a table and look for the trend toward the largest area value. My kids had this in fifth grade, it%26#039;s a well-known problem.
